Erotic Reading Challenge 2012

Hosted by: The Forbidden Bookshelf

The Forbidden Bookshelf is excited to announce that it will be hosting their second annual erotic reading challenge for 2012! The only difference is they're upping the erotic factor to BDSM, kink, and taboo genres.

The challenge comes complete with a fun incentive and multiple challenge levels that should appeal to newbies of the genre, and those of us who've been around the block! Don't act shy, you know who you are! :)

The questions is... which level will you unlock?

Challenge Rules:

• First: Sign Up!  We want to see who's on board with us! :)

• Challenge runs from January 1, 2012 - December 31, 2012

• You can start the challenge anytime during the year.

• As you read, keep a list of the book titles and their author. Stop by The Forbidden Bookshelf and click on the "Challenge" page at the top of the blog. Leave a comment with your list of completed books, and your name and email addy. We will periodically update the "Challenge" page by adding YOUR name with the appropriate key as you "unlock" the appropriate challenge level. 

• Each level you unlock is worth one entry point into the end-of-the-year GRAND PRIZE drawing: A $20 electronic gift card to a book store!

• At the end of the year, we will randomly select a name from the magical hat (i.e. random.org).

• You don't have to be a blogger to participate! Bloggers who are keeping a challenge post and want to link to it, may do so by adding your website/blog link in the comment(s) you leave on the challenge page. 

 

I have signed up for the 50+ level!
